rob, last year just before hurricane irene, chris christie told people in no uncertain terms and i will quote him here, get the hell outfit beach. my question to you, are people heeding his message to get out and get to safer ground? >> reporter: you know, they are. and you may remember, he caught some criticism for using those strong words last year after what people along the immediate jersey shore felt was an overreaction. certainly after irene's disaster, turned out to be a wise choice, especially for those living along the immediately shoreline. here in asbury park and up and down the northern coastline of new jersey, they have certainly heeded his warning. here's a look at the surf that continues to pour in. the tide is actually receding now. but i've only seen it go down maybe five, ten feet in the last 20 minutes because the actual surge continues to push water over what should be dry, sandy beach here. but obviously that's not the case. so i think throughout the afternoon, even though the tide is going down, we're going to see it hold where it is. and when high tide comes again

the last time was hurricane irene that. was august of last year. this resident lives right on the beach. he, of course, is worried about the waves. >> i'm really, really worried because they just told a friend of mine, they think it's going to hit the bay, the bay and the ocean is going to come together. >> the storm surge along some areas of the east is expected to be 11 feet or higher, and it was just made worse by the full moon. >> absolutely. hurricane sandy at this hour is still hundreds of miles offshore. but even from that distance, she has battered the coast of north carolina. fierce, unrelenting winds blew off the water all day sunday. and the rain that came with it has flooded towns inland from the shore. and now a cold front is moving in from the west. that is a chilly and unusual aftereffect for a hurricane. and people in the carolinas and along much of the east coast scrambled to secure their boats. sandy's outer bands washed away this 30-foot boat and several others along north carolina's crystal coast. some boats were pushed on shore
